The World Cup qualifiers have ended, and we finally know the last six countries to qualify for the FIFA competition in the summer in USA, Mexico and Canada. And what a last day, with the surprise elimination of Italy, third time in a row the four-time champions fail to qualify for World Cup.

A thrilling match between Sweden and Poland was finally decided by the Swedish star Viktor Gyokeres, ending the nightmarish qualification process (they finished third on their group and only played qualifiers because of their Nations League ranking).

These were the results of the World Cup qualifiers games on Tuesday:


Bosnia and Herzegovina 1(4)-1(1) Italy
Sweden 3-2 Poland
Czechia 2(3)-2(1) Denmark
Kosovo 0-1 Turkey
DR Congo 1-0 Jamaica
Iraq 2-1 Bolivia

Bosnia and Herzegovina joins Group B (Canada, Qatar, Switzerland)
Sweden joins Group F (Netherlands, Japan, Tunisia)
Turkey joins Group D (USA, Paraguay, Australia)
Czechia joins Group A (Mexico, South Africa, South Korea)
Iraq joins Group I (France, Senegal, Norway)
